A little of this and a little of that...

In my house, today was clean out the frig and see what you end up with for dinner day! So I did. It's been a very long week, and we've mostly ordered in. The vegetable drawer was looking mighty sad, needed to use up what I could and then start fresh tomorrow morning, shopping for the week.

I grabbed a couple zucchini, some portobello slices and a couple tomatoes that would never be pretty in a salad. Sauteed them up with some olive oil and threw in a can of artichoke hearts and the juice of a Meyer lemon. Lots of salt and pepper and it came out really good. The tomatoes cook down and make it kind of saucy. The lemon made it taste pretty bright. Not bad for a last minute throw together!

I had a couple rib steaks for us, and skirt steaks for the kids!

A frozen cheesecake that I thawed and cut into hearts and topped it with hot fudge and strawberries. A pretty nice dinner, all in all!

About Me

I love to cook. Sometimes. I love takeout. More than sometimes! I used to think there's "no thyme to cook," and that the smoke alarm was my timer, but now "there's always thyme to cook" and sometimes even bake!
